Brazilian police seek US help to trace money for Bolsonaro film

Brazilian police want help from US authorities to follow money sent to a fund for “Dark Horse,” a film about former President Jair Bolsonaro.

The Justice Ministry must check the request before sending it to the United States.

Investigators are examining whether some of the money was diverted, including to support Eduardo Bolsonaro in the US; he denies receiving funds.

The case matters because it involves allegations of money laundering, corruption and the misuse of public funds.
